Mr. Marsiiam's Description of Notoclea. 



295 



For an example of this family he refers to Chrysomela Austra- 

 lasia of Fabricius, an insect not known to me, but evidently be- 

 longing to my genus of Notoclea. 



It is proper to add that the same author appears to allude to 

 insects of this genus in a note upon the genus Chrysomela in 

 page 160 of the Tableaux Me*thodiques y contained in the 24th volume 

 of the Nouveau Dictionnaire d'HistoireNaturelle, published at Pa- 

 ris in 1804, where he observes, " Les Indes orientales fournissent 

 " plusieurs especes de Chrysomeles dont le corps est himisphhique, 

 " et les palpes maxillaires presque termines en hache."
